Guys,
Just heard about a PPR for some guy who applied in Feb 2012 and got the PPR last week. Another one applied also in Feb 2012, got the PPR 3 weeks ago.
So, please stop guessing and generalizing random pseudo-facts based on the limited size of the population we have in this forum compared to the actual PPR rate.
It's always a pain in the arse for those of us whose files are transferred from a visa office to another. Hopefully this whole file backlog will be cleared for those files.
For the files directly sent to Ankara, seems like the process is often reasonably fast (way less than 16 months).
Good luck all with this crappy waiting period
